Ever since Hubel and Wiesel described orientation selectivity in the visual cortex, the
question of how precise selectivity emerges has been marked by considerable debate …

Orientation selectivity in the primary visual cortex (V1) is a receptive field property that is at
once simple enough to make it amenable to experimental and theoretical approaches and …

A fundamental problem for any visual system with binocular overlap is the combination of
information from the two eyes. Electrophysiology shows that binocular integration of …

A simple model is shown to account for a large range of V1 classical, and nonclassical,
receptive field properties including orientation tuning, spatial and temporal frequency tuning …

Neurons in primary visual cortex (V1) are thought to receive inhibition from other V1 neurons
selective for a variety of orientations. Evidence for this inhibition is commonly found in cross …

The responses of neurons in the primary visual cortex (V1) are suppressed by mask stimuli
that do not elicit responses if presented alone. This suppression is widely believed to be …

A salient visual stimulus can be rendered invisible by presenting it to one eye while flashing
a mask to the other eye. This procedure, called continuous flash suppression (CFS), has …

Areas beyond the classical receptive field (CRF) can modulate responses of the majority of
cells in the primary visual cortex of the cat. Although general characteristics of this …

Sub-additivity and variability are ubiquitous response motifs in the primary visual cortex (V1).
Response sub-additivity enables the construction of useful interpretations of the visual …

The mechanisms underlying the emergence of orientation selectivity in the visual cortex
have been, and continue to be, the subjects of intense scrutiny. Orientation selectivity …
